Learning languages didn’t just open doors - it rewrote the map of my life. From sharing meals in Spain to interpreting in Kosovo, even the smallest phrases led to the deepest connections. You never know where languages might take you. albarolanguages.com/2025/05/19/the…

Learning another language is about connection, understanding and acceptance. It's about discovering other cultures, beliefs and lifestyles. It's about shared humanity. And all of that benefits all of us. Languages make a difference to everyone.

Baroness Coussins welcomes Department for Education announcement on continued funding for Mandarin Excellence Programme next year: "I am delighted and relieved to hear that the MEP ‘s funding has been renewed for another year, but hope it will continue in the longer term too." [1/2]

"Mandarin Excellence Programme shows what British pupils are capable of when supported by a well-funded, high quality language programme. It would have been a waste to lose that, especially when the curriculum is under review. Mandarin is much-needed in business, diplomacy and security."[2/2]

Don’t underestimate the power of any new language you have access to - whether it's school French or home Polish. Every language learned is a step into another culture, a chance to experience life differently, to connect deeply, and to grow in ways you never expected or imagined.
